CASTING DIRECTOR! Cast an all-black remake of Jaws:
Yep, it's an imaginary thing. It's probably questionable taste to consider remaking,etc etc. Save those arguments, okay. Just tell me who would be the best choices to portray:

1)Sheriff Brody

2)Matt Hooper

3)Captain Quint

4)Mayor Weaselguy

5)Ms. Brody

6)Brody's Deputy

7)The mother of the dead boy

8)Bad Hat Harry

7. Roy Scheider -> Laurence Fishburne
Besides the "blaxploitation" silliness, I'd go see a remake with the change above.

11. Okay, I'll play along with my own post...
1)Sheriff Brody--Don Cheadle or Danny Glover. Either could act the hell out of it.

2)Matt Hooper--Orlando Jones. He'd be funny, etc, the closest 2004 black equivalent to Dreyfus' hippie we could get today.

3)Captain Quint--Issac Hayes or that character actor who played the janitor in Hudsucker Proxy.

4)Mayor Weaselguy--should still be white!

5)Ms. Brody--the lead in Brown Sugar. Yummy!

6)Brody's Deputy--perfect for a skinny rapper. A doofus character actor role. Mos Def.

7)The mother of the dead boy--the mom from Boyz N the Hood. Her grief scene still kills me.

8)Bad Hat Harry--Melvin Van Peeples if he's still alive, or Denzel for a cameo!
